Ingredients
-
1 cup lime juice
-
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
-
1 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
-
½ cup white sugar
-
⅓ cup fish sauce
-
2 green onions, chopped
-
1 stalk lemongrass, smashed and cut into 1-inch pieces
-
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
-
1 ½ pounds (1 inch thick) steak fillet
-
1 head leaf lettuce - rinsed, dried and torn into bite-size pieces
-
½ English cucumber, diced
-
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
Directions
-
Mix lime juice, cilantro, mint leaves, sugar, fish sauce, green onions, lemongrass, and chili sauce together in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved. Adjust the flavor, if desired, by adding more sugar and/or fish sauce; set aside.
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Cook steak on the preheated grill until it begins to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
-
Transfer steak to a chopping board and slice into thin strips; add steak and its juices into the bowl with herb mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
-
Place lettuce in a salad bowl; arrange cucumber on top. Add steak and pour all of the herb mixture on top. Scatter cherry tomatoes over salad and garnish with fresh cilantro leaves.
